Black Silver Rings

Our black silver rings are not plated or coated, but are actually black silver. Sterling silver has a jet black oxide, this is a naturally occurring layer on the outside of the silver that protects the inside of the metal from moisture damage. This layer is known as silver oxide or silver rust.

​​

To achieve this blackened silver finish I make the ring from fresh white recycled silver and then submerge the piece in pure sulphur which turns the white silver completely black. I will then polish back the inside of the ring to white silver and depending on the design of the ring I may polish any tips or hight points of the texture.

Black and silver rings offer a unique and modern alternative to traditional gold or platinum bands. The naturally occurring process of oxidisation of black silver creates a striking contrast with the bright silver, resulting in a visually appealing and enduring piece.​

Mens wedding bands that incorporate black silver add a touch of masculinity and sophistication. In particular, thick black silver rings can make a bold statement while remaining tasteful. The combination of black and silver can also be used to create intricate designs, adding depth and interest to the piece.
